PDP factions trade insults as Supreme Court hears appeal today

The National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, Senator Ali Modu Sheriff, has said the Supreme Court should not hear an appeal filed by the sacked National Caretaker Committee of the party led by Senator Ahmed Makarfi.

Although, hearing in the appeal is slated to take place before the Supreme Court on Monday (today), the Sheriff-leadership of the party has asked the apex court to strike out the appeal, marked SC/133/2017.

The Makarfi-faction filed the appeal on February 27, 2017 against the February 17, 2017 judgment of the Port Harcourt Division of the Court of Appeal which sacked their caretaker committee.

But Sheriff, as the National Chairman of the party, and Prof. Wale Oladipo (as the Secretary), prayed for the striking out of the appeal in their written argument accompanying an application which they filed on March 21, 2017.

The written submission was filed on May 10, 2017, in compliance with the Supreme Court’s directive made during the proceedings of May 4, 2017.

The applicants argued that having been declared illegal by the February 17, 2017 judgment of the Court of Appeal, Port Harcourt, Makarfi and members of the sacked committee lacked the powers to take decisions for the party, including initiating court proceedings in its name.

Sheriff and Oladipo maintained that the PDP, under the current leadership, was comfortable with the judgment of the Court of Appeal and did not intent to challenge it.

Their retinue of lawyers, led by Mr. Lateef Fagbemi (SAN), who filed the court processes on their behalf, argued that since the Court of Appeal, in its February 17, 2017 judgment, declared the Sheriff-led National Working Committee as the authentic leadership organ of the PDP, the Makarfi-led committee could no longer pursue an appeal in the name of the party.

The Sheriff-led PDP leadership argued that the decision of the Makarfi committee to file an appeal in the name of the PDP without its (the party’s) authorisation was not only illegal, it violated the party’s constitution.

They cited the provisions of Chapter 5, Articles 35(1), 36(1) and 42(1) of the PDP constitution to back their position.

They stated, “The decision of the Port Harcourt division of the Court of Appeal cited above (that nullified the ‘National Convention’ of the 21/5/2016, as well as the appointment of the ‘National Caretaker Committee’) and the order made therein for status quo as of May 18, 2016, judgment of Justice Mohammad in Suit No. FCT/HC/CV/1443/20l6, to be reverted to by parties, are still valid and subsisting, and as such, are not only binding on the parties and their privies, but also on the courts including the Supreme Court.

“In the circumstances, we humbly urge that these orders be given effect by recognising that only the National Executive Committee of the PDP, as represented by its National Chairman (Sheriff), National Secretary (Oladipo) and National Legal Adviser can act for the PDP to prosecute this appeal and to instruct counsel to act on behalf of the PDP.”

The Sheriff-led PDP leadership noted that it had not, by its argument, said the Makarfi Committee could not appeal the May 17 judgment of the Appeal Court, having been parties in the case from the trial court, it (the Makarfi Committee) or its members could only appeal as interested parties after first obtaining the court’s leave to so appeal.

In a counter-argument, the Makarfi committee’s group of lawyers, led by Chief Wole Olanipekun (SAN), urged the court to discountenance the Sheriff leadership’s arguments and proceed to hear its appeal.

In its reply of argument, dated May 15, 2017, the Makarfi committee queried the legitimacy of the application filed by the Sheriff-leadership and argued that it was not only strange, but intended to frustrate the hearing of the main appeal.

It argued that it was wrong for Sheriff and others, who had briefed Akin Olujinmi (SAN) to represent them in the substantive appeal and had filed a respondents’ brief, in which they also made similar arguments in relation to the competence of the appeal, to go ahead to brief Fagbemi to ask the court not to hear the appeal but to strike it out.

Relying on Order 8 Rule 6 (1), (2) and (4) of the Supreme Court’s Rules, the Makarfi faction faulted the March 15, 2017 letter of the Sheriff-led NEC, applying to withdraw the appeal and the subsequent application for it to be struck out.

It argued that since the appeal was not filed by Sheriff and others, they lacked the right to apply to withdraw it.

In a response on point of law, filed by Fagbemi on May 18, the Sheriff-led NEC faulted all legal arguments by the Makarfi committee, urging the court to discountenance its contention and hold that it lacked the locus standi to file an appeal in the name of the PDP having been sacked by a subsisting judgment.

We pray God will touch the hearts of rebels —Sheriff group

Meanwhile, the Deputy Chairman of the PDP, Dr. Cairo Ojougboh, in an interview with The PUNCH on Sunday, said the party was praying that God should touch the hearts of those he described as the rebels.

Ojougboh stated, “We believe God; you know the God of justice does not lie. We believe that the Supreme Court is actually supreme and that it will do the right thing. Our prayer is that the rebels’ camp, let God touch them (rebels) to know that this PDP, we need to put it together for all so that Nigeria can get out of difficulties because Nigerians are waiting for us.

“The need for a proper opposition cannot be overemphasised with the situation we find ourselves in this country.’’

Sheriff’s supporters are being misled, says Makarfi’s faction

But a former Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the PDP, Alhaji Abdullahi Jalo, who is a member of the Makarfi-led group, said members of the Sheriff-led PDP were being deceived.

Jalo said this in response to Ojougboh’s comments in a telephone interview with one of our correspondents on Sunday.

He stated, “As for Cairo and those on the other side – I will refrain from calling them rebels even though that is what they are – we urge them to retrace their steps and return home.

“They must know that no matter how far one goes in the wrong direction, the right thing to do is (to) retrace your steps in the right path as soon as you realise your mistake.

“I know those of them on the other side are being deceived and misled.

“Our expectation from the court is simple, justice. We expect the court to give us justice because we feel justice was not served at the Court of Appeal.”

We are seeing the beginning of the end. The people have already garthered in Abuja for the last conference – the funeral of the zoo. RIP Nigeria. When you see Lugard, be sure to remind him of how many sons and daugthers of Africa, he facilitated their deaths needlessly.

No reduction in derivation! If it happens things will be much worse.

a terrorist calling another man a terrorist. where not the two of them send to Libya and other terrorist camp by the IBB regime to trained as terrorist? or he think we do not know what had happened. was he not used to cause problem in the niger dalta just as boko haram are doing in the north today? when do nigerians learn? these two Animals are friends and are carrying out the work of their fathers. they are both Muslim( with no offence to Islam). time will tell.

abbadd

Illiterate thug and hoodlum, since the Niger-Delta own Nigeria and must win 2015 by force with an incompetent man let them do it lets see. The line has already been drawn since we are awaiting the election. Asari Dokubo if you want to see Shekau go to Maiduguri please and wipe BH for us do us that favor or stop backing. we want action not words. The North will not stand back and watch GEJ destroy our region and force the people into destitution by designating every Northerner a BH member and killing thousands of our youth. GEJ has politicized BH and blame the North for something we too want solutions to even the international community knows that. GEJ is unwilling to secure Nigerians and solve the security challenges for that he has to step down 2015 there is no justification for him to seek re-election. Why are the Niger-Delta scared of losing the presidency? they have don something to warrant the fear of backlash.

ShariaHaram

Who are these international communities? The Western nations right? Not Saudi Arabia and the Arabs? The origin of western education being fought against by northern Muslims population. Asari Dokubo is a man of his word. He remains the only Muslims in Nigeria with very strong/harsh word against Boko-Haram. Every other northerner Muslim are cowards and Boko-Haram apologist. Even the Sultan of Sokoto(the paper Muslim leader of Nigeria) is a coward. Sultan of Sokoto dare not challenge boko-haram with such tone. Sultan of Sokoto is a Muslim and potential terrorist anyway! GEJ will never step-down instead, let the killing continue. It is GEJ or no more northern Muslims, Period.

Guguru

adexnyc,

Are you a militant to know that Asari keeps to his word or are you the fly in the room perched on the wall watching whether Asari keeps to his words or not?

Atiku who said Nigeria will be ungovernable for Jonathan is the thug and hoodlum that sponsor the political wing of Boko Haram. Buhari the blood thirsty fool politicized Boko Haram. Niger-Deltans are not scared of losing the presidency, but they are protecting their right like any other ethnic group and their wealth. The question should ask is “why are Hausa-Fulanis so hungry for power to the extent that they sponsor and fund Boko Haram to intimidate Jonathan to resign”?

mota gur

The question should also include, why are the yorobas so devilish in orientation and cowardly ? This evil tribe called yoroba is an albatross.

Prince Gozel

Every Northerner is a potential Boko Haram. What about Abdulmutallab the underwear bomber? That tells you that every northerner is a terrorist.

OKWY

If GEJ steps down his vice will take over. Not you nor your APC will take over. It is still the same PDP. Why don’t you suggest a better solution but please don’t mention APC as a solution to Nigeria problem because I see APC as part of the problem

Ademakin

LOL!!! You are so blind by the flag of your idiotic party. It’s not about the party here, it’s about the region. If Sambo takes over you’ve automatically surrendered your soul to the North and trust me all the Northerners will go back to PDP and Sambo will make sure power doesn’t leave the North no more.

Osibisa

AIRBRAIN, he did not mention, WIN. But insisted that Jonathan, like every other Nigerian, must be allowed to exercise his right to contest.

You people do not want to live in peace with others; and you don’t want to leave the Southerners; and you don’t want them to leave you.

You don’t even want them to control their RESOURCES. AND YET YOU DON’T WANT THEIR SON, HABA!

EUBSS

Your boko haram actions are just targeted at the presidency against 2015. Please do not stop . Kill the girls and show the world the video. Idiots .

Gideon Orkar

Some feelings are best expressed by uncouth persons and thugs. We all need a bit of madness sometimes. Not my words but Asari has expressed my feelings. Yes you can go bite an IED if you don’t agree

Ejinrin

Oga Asari,pls wait no more.kindly mobilize your boys whit you and go into sambisa forest in search of our innocent young girls,after all you can eat,drink even dance in a bomb blast.This would not only add to your ill gotten billions,but also make you a Heroe

Peter Agba:
CHIBOK GIRLS : WHY AM NOT GOING TO CRY.
Nigeria is
the center of Nollywood the 3rd biggest movie industry in the
entertainment world and there’s a drama going on ‘LIVE’ as I write, it’s
called, “the Chibok Girls”. It is the sad but deeply touching true life
story of some innocent girls kidnapped at their school by… Who else
but, Boko Haram. Oh! Sorry, you must have heard about it. I just wasted
your time.
The girls were kidnapped two weeks ago but the drama
started this week and trust this center that has given the world such
epic movies like Ossuofiasian, Mr. Ibu in London and the Last Flight to
Lagos. The dramatist personnel were not lacking. The people who kept
quiet when Chimamanda’s ‘half a Yellow Sun’ that told the story of how
genocide was committed against millions was banned decided to jump to
the streets and cry for the release of the kidnapped angels. But, that’s
not why I am not going to cry. But, it’s really saddening that all
these street cry and drama over the Chibok Girls didn’t start until some
western organizations picked interest and NGO ‘s and individuals who
desperately needed to update their CV’s and enhance their funding
opportunities started jumping out.
But, that’s not why I am not going to cry.

I am not going to cry because my heart is so much hardened and I have
lost feelings of sympathy. The truth is that I tried as I could I just
couldn’t shed even an atom of tears. My eyes are completely dried of
tears and I have shed more than enough for a ten life time in this
single life just for the simple fact of where I come from and my
religion.
I am not going to cry because it was the hypocrites that
march out to the streets to dramatise the kidnapping of these girls that
aided and made this kidnapp possible. I am not going to cry because
people might not notice the difference between my genuine cry and their
crocodile tears.
HYPOCRITES! THAT’S WHAT YOU ALL ARE.
BECAUSE YOU REFUSED TO SPEAK OUT

In 1966-70 when easterners were being slaughtered like animals in the
north because in your calculations it will help you to grab political
power. And I cried!
Because you looked the other way in 1980 when
2, 467 Christians were killed in Zaria because you thought it will
benefit your religion. And I cried!
Because you felt unconcerned in Dec. 1980 when the Kano Maitatsine sect rioters slaughtered 4, 177 Christians. And I cried!

Because you couldn’t speak out against the 1982 Sept. 29-Oct 3 Kaduna
riot that killed 53 people and burnt down Churches. And I cried!
Because you kept quiet over 1982 Maitatsine sect riot in Maiduguri when 118 people were killed. And I cried!

Because you didn’t speak out when a governor was stealing billions and
cutting the hands of poor citizens who stole chicken just to score a
cheap political point. And I cried!
Because you clapped when Boko Haram came and were targeting Igbo, Ijaw, Churches and non Moslems. And I cried!
That was why they came for the girls.
You couldn’t speak out
Because it was not your people
Because it was not your religion
Because it was not your ethnicity
Because it will help you grab power.
So,
They didn’t expect you to speak when they started burning schools.
And you didn’t disappoint.
Your silence embodied them and made them to come for the Chibok Girls.
You see why I refuse to join you and cry?
You are a hypocrite shedding crocodile tears.
Besides, I have cried so much because I am Igbo and a Christian that there’s no longer tears in me left.
I have witnessed so much of these atrocities against my people that my mind is now hardened.

Besides, I don’t want to cry today and cry again tomorrow all over
again and again and again and again over the same religious problems
that I sincerely know couldn’t have been this worst if you had speak up
against it long ago.
Between you and me we know my cry will not change anything but, your sincerity will.
That is why I am not going to cry over the Chibok Girls.
Even though my heart bleeds.

Obi

This is best write-up in this matter so far. May God bless you for reminding them of all the atrocities that went unnoticed in their presence. Until a cunnyman cun himself before he realised that he is a cunnyman man.

chaiby

Thank you for taking us down the memory lane what a wonderful write-up. God bless you.

effizzy

Nice one!!!

Enyi

Brain Power. I am not surprised, one bit.

Osibisa

Brilliant! I have also refused to cry out for the same reasons.

They also clapped INSTEAD OF CRY, when the same YERIMA (a celebrated PEDOPHILE) and Co promoted or elevated 12 years old GIRLS as MATURE and of age, once they get married. In Nigeria today, the age of MAJORITY begins from 12 YEARS, IF THE CHILD IS MARRIED.

Instead of condemn him and chase the PEDOPHILE out of town (or into JAIL) our people kept mute and quiet. So I refuse to cry out for some MATURE 12 YEARS OLD GIRLS who have been happilly married out (although I bleed inside).

Anybody who cries out now is a HYPOCRITE and the WICKED ONE. Because they did not wail and roll on the floor when the shoe was on the other foot. They refused to cry when it did not affect them. They empowered and emboldened the MONSTER. Well, the MONSTER has returned home to roost.

Onye Awka

Wonderful write up! Almost brought tears to my eyes, but then I realized that the tears could look like crocodile tears! Can one cry more than the bereaved?
I must quickly state that Boko Haram has forced us to start talking about the atrocities of the past, committed by evil politicians in the name of wresting power from “opponents” and looting the treasury of this beloved country. I used to think that secession is it until I realized that the Biafra story came about because the North was in power and exploited it to the full. Now they are out, and are going about acting as if they never had their chance to prove their mettle in leadership.
In as much as I do not support Jonathan, I still support a southerner being at the helm of affairs – a competent one o- and will never support any section of the country breaking away. This country should remain one so that the North can at least have a taste of their medicine!

realistic

hmmm if an evil child of satan biafran like u can claim a victim of your own senseless war, then u can claim anything but we are not moved and u cant change history. Ppl will forever thank the western world on this particular issue bcos d materials of evidence of your evil war u lunched against nga is overwhelming in libraries for whoever care to research it and I have. I made it a major issue in my life to find out truly if a group pf ppl can truly be born with evil in their genes. I have no doubt whatsoever biafrans are truly bred of evil in d purest. Hitler was evil and that was just him with his power of conviction on his followers but Germans in general are not evil. Its a different case with anything with a pin drop of biafra evil blood; u are all born evil like that and it wont ever change by itself but mankind would have to decide if it was a mistake to let u surrender shamelessly then continue with infesting us with evil. We might have that opportunity to make amends, just keep it coming sons of evil bitches. Nzeogwu started genocide in Nigeria and perhaps in the whole of Africa; he massacred all d leaders of other tribes (Yorubas, Hausas and Fulanis etc), that action triggered d unkind response to d evil race and ppl demanding u lot move back to your region. What followed next was most unexpected, another evil child of satan biafra the coward ojukwu who ran away eventually then started the organised massacre of innocent nigerians, mass killing the ungrateful ppl of d swamps including unbelievable acts of evil mudering pregnant women in the sth sth but cutting open their tommies first to reach and kill their unborn children – I am still tormented everytime I remember this particular documented act of evil by biafrans if truly this kind of evil is possible by any human. What an affront ! u want to change d cause of history by your innuendos turning your evil biaran race in to victims of your own act of evil against nga. Even for ppl like us born almost a decade after your evil war, we know what happened thatnks to evidence of history preserved by them. Since when is a villian, a perpetrator becomes d victim; nzeogwu started d ethnic cleansing, coward ojukwu followed with mass murder of nigerians and annexed part of nigeria until he was beaten back like a coward in Ore in current ondo state and d only regret is that nga did not finish d job permanently; then u evil children of atan biafrans started infesting our land with all sorts of evil (fake pharmaceuticals, hard drugs, breeding babies for okija rituals, poisoning of d so call evil biafrans palm oil chemically enhanced d colour that has beeen killing ppl, etc). U are not the victim, u evil ones are the evil villians

Goat, you have no answer to what he said and you only result to abuse. Dumb

You made a valid point brother. Any cry for now could be likened to crocodile tears. We have had more than enough already.

Whose innocent young girls? Hausa/Fulani or Biafrans? If they want let them kill and rape all their people. I wonder why they have become impatient, they cannot wait to go to heaven and have their 70 virgins. I bet you many of the high school girls they adopted have already been devirgined. After all they were supposed to be married at 12.

Osibisa

For what? He never said he is concerned. But since you are so concerned, the mantle falls on you to lead the way to the forest.

mota gur

In search of who ? what is the great Asari’s business with a bunch of kidnapped kanuri girls by kanuri girls ? you are as foolish as Oby Ezekwesili.

Wähala

Asari should take his battle to the Sambisa Forest first and prove his mettle there. A fat cow Cotonou Genderm chained to the floor for days spitting sh*t from the gutter. When the Boko Haram attacked the Yellow House and his Dumbo was floating in a helicopter, where was obese Asari? The Northe has denied senile Ed Clark resource control yet, Asari is talking of do-or-die… Talk is free indeed. Aborigine Clown!

Osibisa

But he has no interest in the matter. However, since you are so concerned, and you have been wailing and rolling on the floor with the parents of the girls, why don’t you lead the way to the forest.

Sunday Njokede

Jonathan has the security vote to secure lives and properties, he should be in the front. And, if he cannot lead the way, let him resign and go. By and by, Nigerians are voting him out in 2015 that is, if the army has not taken over power by force of coup.

donadoni

monkey, why should asari take his battle to sambisa to do what in sambisa, their lives over there has no value, u talk of resource control that the north has deny them that, wait and see ,the problem with some of u is that most u fail to face reality of life, asari has shot the oil facilities before and the country was at it kneels and he said it again before the house they could not do him anything.

Edward Osadebay

Dokubo, why you and your boys no just vex patapata now enter Sambisa Forest, flushed those bastards out and rescue our daughters. E for better instead of waiting for them to get Jonathan first, believe me Nigerians will not shed any tears if they hit Jonathan. Even in your Ijaw nation, I doubt very much if it will disturb their fishing trips. So just shut up.

Senator Ahmed Yerima, El-Rufai, Buhari, Boni Sheriff, Junaid Mohammed, Atiku Abubarkar and Shema will have to enter the Sambisa forest, their backyard and not Asari.

effizzy

Don’t mind this backward thinking Mr. Edward.
Stay there and be waiting for Asari to enter Sambisa forest for you.MUMU

Brooklyn101

If Asari is not ready to enter the forest then he should shut his loud mouth instead of trying to bring up serious conflicts because boko boys are deadlier than the militants ,they slash throats open and hardly shoot unless from a distance so Asari should be cautioned so that his comments do not breed fire that would spread through the Niger delta region. He can’t stop Boko haram only God can. The only militant that is brave enough is Ateke Tom or Tampolo Government and not Asari that has a university in Cotonou. The North belong to Nigeria, they are part of us all, what is happening to them is affecting the image of Nigeria as such, the president and the whole of Nigeria should support them and not neglect them. It does not matter who is ruling Nigeria now or who ruled before,any Nigerian can rule Nigeria because it belongs to us all

EUBSS

So you think that if they start the MEND will spare any single aboki in Niger Delta soil?

Osibisa

Enter the Forest for what? Did he tell you that he is missing his sisters or siblings? Wake up and smell the coffee, it is not his problem or fight.

tundemash

Mujahideen Asari, talk is cheap… when are you going to Sambisa forest ?

2cents_now

Please help me ask am. After eating sumptuous meal and rocking luxury of aircraft, this man is all hot air. All fire no heat.

Just my 2cents

Benny

Is the sumptuous meal that he is eating from your backyard? I have said it overtime, should this crude oil be in other region, definitely the Niger-Delta could have been excised from this mistake call Nigeria.

Mujahideen Buhari and Junaid Mohammed will go to the Sambisa forest and caution the boys in Hausa/Fulani coded Islamic language. Asari is not familiar with Sambisa, but with the creeks, and he has been talking to the boys in the creeks

Punch Comment

you mean making sure the settlement from the presidency and big money from oil bunkery and theft gets to them?

Pls ask the fat boy to pick up his gun and get on his way to sambisa forest first.

Osibisa

Why? But he isn’t from there. However, since you are so concerned, perhaps, you can lead the way to the forest.

EUBSS

It is because of people like you that Yorubas are called traitors . Thank God there are still plenty men of honour in your land.

effizzy

To do what in the poverty stricken Sambisa Forest? Abegie
If the Northerners cannot go after their BH in Sambisa, then they should all die.
As for Asari, he is saying,
“if you dear bring ur Sambisa Madness down South and even hurt GEJ, then we shall show you that no one has Monopoly of Violence.
We shall also make the country ungovernable even after you take over from GEJ.
Be Warned!!”
This is Asari’s message and I fully support it.
Perpetuating violence in the Name of wrestling power should be discouraged by any means possible.

Ade2Onyx

You quoted Asari threatening to destabilize a future government while in the same breath saying “Perpetuating violence in the Name of wrestling power should be discouraged by any means possible.”…. Irony perhaps?

Blackburn J.

Nothing ironic here my friend. The simple point is to give them a taste of their own medicine which they have tried to force others to drink. And pls dont ever mix up a group of people fighting for what belong to them and these group of marauders, murderers and rapists called boko haram. Asari may appear to be a violent man but his reasons are world apart to that of that coward called Shekau.

Lola says

On point.

Ade2Onyx

Give who a taste of their own medicine I might ask? So you justify the killing of innocent people either way? Or you want to tell me Asari can just kill any northerner or muslim just because boko haram is from the north? I’m not even going to go into the argument of the oil in niger delta not belonging to any one group of people, that’s pointless. However, I will say that Boko Haram’s actions does not give asari the right or moral authority to start his own crusade, unless he knows the members of boko haram, then by all means, he should have at it

otuonet otu

how many inocent people were killed in the Niger delta? only the militant and the army who were at war with each other. but your BH not only kidnapped school children, they burnt villages too

Common Man

Are u telling me that solders aren’t innocent too? So far the militants killed our solders what’s the point? How about some naval officers and foreigners that was killed during their struggles?? Pls bro reason.

Noble

The soldier weren’t innocent, in as much as they serve as a barrier to what the militants wants to achiever, they can’t be tag innocent.. For the foreigners, the militant didn’t kill any of them intentionally, some of them only died as a result of cross fire between the soldiers and the militants during rescue operations. guy, think before u comment.

Ken

You owe that common man no explanation .

Fan

They are armed and ready at all time unlike armless innocent people

Omo Odua

The soldiers were killed during battle with the militants. the soldiers were armed too, unlike the defenseless and urnarmed innocent Nigerians killed by you Boko Haram brothers. Let Shekau and his Northern sponsors try it and see if fire will not consume the entire North.

Ade2Onyx

read the last sentence of my statement, your answer is there….

Punch Comment

You can talk now that the tragedy has come down!

Newton

That is the point. Head to head with Boko Harem in their own backyard.

tbt

Ade2onyx, effizzy is not saying Asari will destabilize a future government, he is saying perpetuating violence just to wrestle power should be discouraged by any means, but what ever that is good for the Jews are also good for Gentiles. meaning if government will not get peace because the leader is from another zone, we should also know that one day the other zone will also be a leader.

Martins Udoh

GBAM!!! Correct!! This is the correct interpretation of Asari’s

Punch Comment

You should know Asari is a criminal and a BIG BASKET MOUTH. He is no better than Shekau or what do they call him? He is just fortunate to be enjoying the amnesty comedy and of course he’s still enjoying dinner with the president. By the time we have good governance in Nigeria, Shekau, Asari and their followers will all be behind bars if not executed

Having come from the South South why you people endorsed current Jonathan’s skewed public appointments and Federal projects in favor of one ethnic group; the Igbos?
Just take few seconds to appraise these unhealthy trends u will find that every bit of conspicuous appointment is exclusively reserved for these Most Favored and Most Protected People ie SGF,Finance , Aviation , Power, Health, Education ministries , NEITI, NCC,FRSC, RMAFC , DMO, SEC,NSE, Budget, NPC,BPE,Banking chief executives you name it.

It is still One Nigeria for now and so all hands should be on deck to save the young innocent kids missing. Their fate should not be decided by terrorists who have given up thier life for unjust cause.

Let forget that as long as there is no Niger Delta person to rescue among them, if he Asari is not a bastaaard cause only a fool and bastarrd make mouth on the page of newspaper tomorrow he should enter Sambisa forest and stop making noise.

Jasper

Excuse me! how on earth could reason as an alien. when Niger Delta Militant were on their mission, did any of the BH member go there to safe Nigeria for u?
Reason! reason man!

Yawe1

My brother try to apply wisdom please and reason like a human being. Niger Delta Militant operate with the support of the State Gov’s then cause they see it as a way of letting them have their own share by stealling oil, deviate our oil and robbing banks in a pretends like robbers when ever they need money. Same goes with this devil call Boko Haram too, so don’t just celebrate this tout, thug and militant call asari cause if he’s sure of himself and want to help jonathan out, tomorrow he should face Sambisa forest.

Yawe1, how on earth can one person talk like a cowards????

For your information, one person talk like a coward, while two or more people talk like cowards.

Osibisa

For what? Why does he need to go there? I thought that by now you would have led the way to the forest, as you were wailing and rolling on the floor with the parents of the abducted girls, as if this is the first time you have heard that innocent Southerners (mainly Igbos) and innocent Youth Corpers were massacred and butchered. You did not wail or roll on the floor when Christians were bombed in their churches, during worship.

Go on, lead the way to Sambisa Forest as you are more touched about this, than the worst and hideous massacres of innocent people.

EUBSS

The sole aim of the abduction is deceit and distraction just to present a situation where the world will think that the government is not working. As long as they perpetrate the evil in their blood soaked land they should continue killing their people till the next ten years.

Ade2Onyx

Two bombs in the same area in the same month and the government is working? If this is GEJ working, then I fear to see how it will be when he isn’t….

Daniel

Are you just thinking about the bomb explosions or the cause of the explosions. Please read more about your past because that is the solution to present and future problems.

Castigating Jonathan will never solve the problem of terrorism. We Nigerians must learn to tell ourselves the truth.

loadedosy

The 2 blasts killed people from SE,SS,SW etc. It favours no one bro.

Garba Kano

So bomb can be ingeniously selective that when detonated in a public melting pot like a typical motor park in Nigeria can only identify and kill Southerners only thus ignoring the Mallams cart pushers, tea sellers etc! How not to be mischievous !!!

Blackburn J.

@Osibisa and EUO, Pls note this very well that some of those girls might actually be Christians. Dont let anyone deceive you that
only Muslims are in Borno. As a matter of fact the Christian/Muslim ratio are almost equal and we in the South are ignorant of this due to misinformation by Northern Muslims. Pls those girls no matter the religion do not deserve any of this and I keep repeating that this so called Boko Haram are mainly foreigners. Infact I doubt if Shekau is a Nigerian and therein lies the major problem in the North where Northern Muslim allow foreigners from Niger, Chad, Mali etc to settle among them simply because they are Muslims. Thats how this whole mess started in the first place.

EUBSS

It is their product and their business so any christian that stays back in their should fight himself or quit . Boko Haram is on the way to have their own Sharia or Islamic country so let them sort themselves out . The elders in the North have made it clear that they are in support of Boko haram so let regions go and form countries . Nigeria is not a must.

ConcernedNigerian

At this time, all we need is love and solidarity and not hate and divicibility statements from all right thinking Nigerians. Nobody choose to born in the North or South. Please, let us all be sensible.

EUBSS

Is your advice directed to Boko haram or where ?

Garba Kano

You an repentant devil totally primitive ignorant and inhuman!

longben

boko haram is busy cutting a large swathe of destruction through your region and all you do is to rant.Why is it that anytime you and your people ever bother to comment on any topic on Nigeria,its alway GEJ this GEJ that?GEJ from morning till night be it from your politicians or the almajiri on the streets.Why are you people so obsessed with him? How can so many millions of people have a one-track mind like a six-inch-single?.

Garba Kano

Is there any govt since the creation of nigeria that has witnessed so much open theft with impunity and mass destruction of human life and property like GEJ’s be it in the North or South? Imagine one single woman minister paying over N10 billion for renting a jet and dismissing Sanusi for telling the truth about stealing $20 billion? If this happened under Babangida, Buhari or Abacha’s govt would u have had the same mindset? Primitive uncivilized people!!!

fola

Garuba describe your brother shekau for for us. Nainsense

Musanga

ConcernedNigerian you are making sense, but do you know the heart and mind of muslim North; with the Boko Haram and not with GEJ government. That is why the battle appears difficult. I bet you even US won’t solve this problem.

Nze

The girls are innocent. The country should do everything to save them whether they are moslems or christians. We cannot transfer our sins to our children.
The sins of the past leadership in this country has come to hunt everybody. Putting our hands on desk is the only solution to this problem:not bickering and annoyance.

donadoni

Mr Blackburn are U sure those girls are missing or some people are just playing pranks just to create Tension among nigerian, by my own observation it is 50-50 thing they said this girls are missing but they can not give the accurate figures, no picture to identify the missing girls and when some body brought out intelligent idea some apc members were criticising the person.

All the security leaders are brothers to the abducted girl’s yet they can not find them all the plans to wrestle power can not work.

Is Gani Adams a stark illiterate not regarded as a Yoruba hero? At least, Asari is protecting his property. Is blood thirsty and virgin seeking paedophillias not your heroes in the North? Swine.

Barr. Henry

I wonder o! Indeed talk is cheap! U guys at one time terrorized Nigeria like war-Lords. Why make mouth now instead of heading for Sambisa forest, or where else is d battlefield? If u are war-Lords as u claim, take ur do-or-die to Sambisa forest, that’s where its needed Lazy men! ‘Na we una pass!’

OKWY

Charge and bail lawyer. I have said b4 that I’m not sure you are a lawyer.Why would a lawyer who knows the law be supporting lawlessness all the time. Why can’t you. make meaningful comment as a learned fellow. I know there is for you lawyers where trouble abound.Like FELA sang “Lawyer wey dey do like carpenter na suwegbe”. I didn’t call you suwegbe but na FELA called you

Blackburn J.

Na fake.

The Truth

Thank you o. At least the people concerned now are Muslims, Asari Dokubo and chibok girls. He can volunteer to rescue his fellow Muslims from captive. Better to this than fronting for Blooding GEJ

EUBSS

They limited their battle to Niger Delta and agreed to negotiate . They were not killing innocent children , men and women and they were not destroying schools and markets and motor parks . Their demands were totally justified but Boko Haram demands are huge jokes.

Ade2Onyx

This is from wikipedia, backed up by a report from Human Rights Watch: “Innocent civilians were also killed by NDPVF forces firing indiscriminately in order to engage their opponents. At the end of August 2004 there were several particularly brutal battles over the Port Harcourt waterfront; some residential slums were completely destroyed after the NDPVF deliberately burning down buildings. By September 2004, the situation was rapidly approaching a violent climax which caught the attention of the international community.”….. They did not kill innocent people you say?

Have_ago

You are dumb if you are relying on wikipedia as reference point. Let me remind and educate you a little bit. You can write and edit wikipedia and say all the nonsense you want to say and it will be published Everybody have editing right. Go back to school

EUBSS

Collateral damage cannot be avoided. The question you need to ask is what are the demands of NDVF and that of Boko Haram ???

Ade2Onyx

ahhh, so now it’s collateral damage….. I see…. However, you cannot say the violence of one set is more justified than the other, no matter their demands…. Condemn both sides, simple as

NB

When the FG offered the NDVF amnesty, they accepted it wholeheartedly. Why is your boko haram not accepting the amnesty offered them by the FG. Why are the boko haram still killing everyday without any reason for it??
Let them accept the amnesty offered them and then we will know that they are serious otherwise your supporting and justifying their activities is wicked and unreasonable
Enough of these boko haram apologists everywhere in Nigeria.
God bless Nigeria

Ade2Onyx

read bro, read…. I said in my sentence that I am not justifying anyone’s activities, neither Boko Haram nor the NDVF…. I personally am not in support of amnesty for any militant or terrorist group…. You don’t offer amnesty to people who kill indiscriminately, you crush them till they accept defeat. One group of people should not be holding the entire nation ransom, simple as…..

longben

Is there anything,just anything that remotely relates NDVF to boko haram ?Dont even try because it be like comparing light and darkness.A bunch of maddened,drugged-out,blood thirsty PIGS and the struggle of a people for their rights and human dignity should not be mentioned in the same breath.ITS abominable

Blackburn J.

Innocent people always die in a war but it is a totally different scenario when innocent people are constantly, consistently and systematically targetted as a modus operandi. Why is that so difficult for you to understand? You must have a twisted wicked mind to compare Asari to Shekau’s methods who just blew up a bus station TWICE that was full of struggling people and was gloating over that. Are you guys normal at all?

Ade2Onyx

I am not saying any side’s action is more justified than the other, I am saying do not excuse one side simply because they have the semblance of what might seem like genuine demands…. Just because one side was given amnesty doesn’t make them better….. No one side is better than the other, that’s what I’m saying

Newton

Bless you!!! Shame on you Barr. Henry if that is your true name. Aboki.

what is he going to do in sambisa forest?is he one of the nigerian soldiers?or was a Niger Deltan abducted too?

Efe1

This man talks too much! Look how fat he is, that on its whole show he has no control over his appetite, so how can he have control over any other thing. I suspect he is looking for his next instalment from GEJ so it is a new session of talking rubbish. Go to sambisa forest and we would talk you fcuk serious.

99% Citizens R Corrupt, +U

You talk like a kid, go to sambisa for what, to help you guys of the evil you planted, He has done his part by daring bh leader to be ready to meet him in the battle field, ask your bh leader to try his nonsense in the south south and lets see who will be the last man standing.
Asari is a man like you, can you come openly and dare bh leader….just try it, and see if you will survive.
Did you hear of bakassi in Abia state b4, there fought for themselves and defeated their enemies, help Nigeria….if you are man enough.

ben benny

You are wrong.Asari has proven tha he can fight.Did you people not beg him with armesty before he stoped?Why didn’t northern militants go to niger delta when Asari was figting?You want him to go to sambisa forest.

Very soon, we would meet with you and your killers there… And that is the truth.

yep..very simple. We have the Niger delta fighters,why they don’t just drive a bunch of them and let them in the Sambisa forests and whoever wins and comes out alive will take the contracts,like this the Niger delta can show they fully support jonathan and ready to keep Nigeria one

Unanswered question about the misery students

– How many students were adopted

– why is that the principal of this school have not produce their pictures and names till date.

– Until now BH have not claim responsible which is unusual, Terrorist usual issue statement with 7 days claiming responsibilities more especially this type that have gotten international attention.

– How about those that claimed to jump out from the bus or caterpillar , do they have bruises and why they treated in the hospital and where.

– Those that escape from the Sambisa from must have been traumatised and could have been hospitalised for resuscitation but they simply go their parent house.

– Do you think that BH will be so weak to allow those girls to escape in their numbers like that.

From the 200 that are said the be adopted, who saw them, how did they packed them in the bus like a bag of cement without eyewitness, no noise, no alert

How did they drive out without resistance.

There are so many questions to ask here

Solution:

However I suggest that Nigeria politicians should leave politic out of this and unite and find the root course of this.

The principal of the school should be interrogated to tell her own story.

Those that escaped should be invited to help and tell their stories.

A search team bothe the local should help Nigeria army to make progress.

Those who jump out from the terrorist truck/caterpillar should also be interviews

The pictures and names of those student should be released to the public without delay.

Nigeria media both print and electronic should move out from their comfort zone and give us an update date information on this rather relied on hearsay.

The media should stop interviewing politician on this as they make matter worst just to win political scores.

donadoni

u hit the nail on the head thanks man

NB

In this issue of boko haram, I think that we should rather focus on the solution rather than politicizing it as some people seem to be doing here.

As it is right now, the military cannot use force in rescuing these abducted school girls otherwise the girls would all be killed in the process and the Fulani leaders will start accusing the GEJ and the military of genocide.

Now what method should we apply at this point? Dialogue!!!

First, we must understand that all the boko haram boys are Fulani. Aagin, the herdsmen who are rearing cattle and grazing in people’s lands and are at the same time killing the indigenes of their host communities with AK47 are all Fulani people.

Therefore, the only solution right now should be for Nigerians to start calling on the Fulani leaders like the Sultan of Sokoto, Buhari, IBB, Abdulsalam, Atiku, Junaid Mohammed, Shehu Sani and a host of others as well as Islamic clerics, to start talking their boko boys in the language they can understand just like the late Yar’Adua asked GEJ and other Niger Delta people to talk to the militants and they listened unless the Fulani leaders have hand in the activities of the boko boys, they can do this for peace to reign in Nigeria. We cannot keep running away from the truth otherwise we would remain in circles.

Or are you telling me that if Buhari should be made the president of Nigeria today, these boko boys will continue with this madness?? No way!!!

Yet instead of Nigerians to start calling on the Fulani leaders to speak up they are pointing at the wrong direction blaming GEJ who has done everything possible to settle this matter to no avail.

However, if Nigerians choose to be cowards and would not hold the Fulani leaders responsible for what is happening in the NE then they can continue to blame GEJ while the killing continues and before you know it the boko boys will bomb the South and the real war will emerge.

Enough of cowardice of the Nigerian people already.
God bless Nigeria

ifeako

Sambisa is not his region.If he goes there then he may have trespass.However Sambisa is Buhari region. Buhari should go to sambisa first and lead the fight against Bokoharam. oh! am mistaken the devil Buhari cannot cast out his type bokoharam.

Benny

You think talk is cheap? When your Gani Adams was destabilizing the whole of South West and causing mayhem with his OPC, you regarded him as a hero that was driving the Yoruba emancipation! The day anything untoward happen to GEJ, you guys should know that would be the end of the freebies.

SpeakOut

Yeah you are right talk is cheap and I still don’t know why the man is still here talking.

Ken

Stupid question !!!

longben

“talk is cheap” indeed and thats why you are here writing and posting rubbish.You are telling a man who led a rebellion against the Nigerian state for 4 years,showed his face to the whole world from the beginning,gave interviews to both local and foreign press alike in the middle of the rebellion he led without fear of being captured or killed and survived for months on end in the underground dungeons of the SSS without loosing his steadfastness even for a minute that “talk is cheap”. If talk is cheap then typing and posting trash is even cheaper.

Fan

This is mother of all stupidest questions ever asked here! Why would he go there? As military or what? As a militant leader he never hide his face while engaging war against the state unlike Boko haram coward leaders who are faceless

was he not in the war front once-monkey–ijaws do not talk cheap when it comes to war-dont call for war–when u have never seen ijaws in action-yet yearn to try them–do not dare dem-ours was not about religion-we were only trying to right the wrong done to us-period–we are only quiet like Asare said because of the presidency of Jonathan–what the Fulani are doing is child’s play–cause it has no effect on the global economy–its just internal–1 trillion a year from our oil revenue being wasted on them-period–but when we start-the world would hear us– and beg for us to end it-cause the price of oil would go up again–not the boko haram war that puts the lives of kids in danger–that is all–

FCT ABUJA

BH is a terrorist while ND is money monger
BH is internationally recognized while ND is locally recognized
BH operate with vehicle ND operate with canoe
BH has bombers while ND have only mouth
BH have sophisticated weapons while ND has local weapons
BH aim is POWER while ND aim is MONEY
Only one thing is unique, BH and ND leaders are Muslim.

Your last line speaks volume. I rest my case

Rigzone

“Are we going to allow them? They will shoot the guns; throw the bombs and that is when we will dance.” — Asari.
This is exactly what Jonathan did in Kano, dancing while Abuja was bombed.
So it was already planned and not a mistake by Jonathan dancing skelewu.

I had a good laugh. It really should ordinarily be moment of mourning.
Just my 2cents

Dafe Sama

YOU SEEM NOT TO UNDERSTAND THE DANCE ASARI IS TALKING ABOUT, THE DANCE IS DIFFERENT FROM THE ONE GEJ DID IN KANO

freshdream

Let us pray that we do not witness that. It is the innocent that suffers in the end.
After over 3000 killed by Boko Haram politicians are still doing well
After Odi and Zaki Biam politicians still own the oil blocks with their international friends
After all the killings in Egypt and Tunisia and Lybia the politicians are back in business
What does it take for people to accept that after every tenure the real change we need is not vastly determined by politicians butby the social policies we push for.
Boko Haram will be a joke compared to bombs in the Niger Delta because the oil and gas will be put to flames then maybe we can all have peace when we return to our rubber and cocoa

The presidency is just one position we have the opportunity to reduce its powers now at the confab without firing a shot. Yet those who are crying most about the presidency are resisting change of federal powers..what right thinking person will suggest giving the federal govt 95% derivation and shout against the powers of federal govt at the same time

Blackburn J.

That is the hypocrisy of the Northern elite for you. They dont want anybody to enjoy what they have been enjoying all this while, they are crying for change in APC and now the change they want is to take us back 30years. These guys are fools to think they can fool us.

ndubuisi

your last line is so purrrfect

Enyi

Please also add, BH kill their own people while ND killed intruders

freshdream

The people are fghting themselves and ignoring the real things that will change their lives
Delegates at the national conference could not agree that the federal government should allow states to partake fully or to a specified percentage in the beneficiation of all their resources, they said consult the states what does that mean? Is consultation 10%, 40% control? As long as the federal govt has 100% control there will alays be a fight for the central jackpot .
They could not ask federal and states to share responsibility for railways, power generation and distribution etc. These are the real changes we need..not to listen to war songs from extremists like Shakau and others
We should be using this forum to pressure the delegates on such changes not waste it on deranged killers

George

The last line finally proves that Islam is really a religion of ‘PISS’.

NaijaMindOfChange

Indeed a religion of peace.

The Truth

Can a tree make a forest? Who are the ones been used by Asari to carry our their evil activities, Christians or Muslims? Please answer this to the public.

Babakeu

Of course, we all know where all that is coming from- it is from the presidency. Asari Dokubo and Imam Shekau can face each other in a battlefield, but let their battlefield be restricted to Sambisa forest without stepping their toes on any town in the whole of the country. Let them kill themselves only.

They must not come and create their nuisances here in the midst of normal human beings. They both belong to the forests where wild animals reside. The survival of the fittest. Asari is bragging, Imam Shekau is boasting, both should leave Nigeria alone. We have had enough of innocent people’s deaths in Nigeria. Both should go and rot in H*ll for all we care. Nonsense!

Blues

Can people see the hypocrisy of this lunatic? You severally claimed boko haram are not muslims, but in your submission above you reverently referred to its leader as Imam Shekau twice. Who are imams? You’re sending dual messages here. One in veiled allegiance to Shekau, and the other to gain the sympathy of the unsuspecting readers.

You must be insane. Imam is just a title which anyone can give himself. Imam means a leader. It has no connection with the word “Islam”. Is Shekau not supposedly the leader of boko haram? Why then going crazy for seeing me calling him a self-acclaimed leader or iman of boko haram? Or is it me the first person that will ever refer to Shekau as Imam in the media? You must be insane!

George

Blues is right in christening you a LUNATIC. Here is the meaning of Imam from Oxford English Dictionary:

Imam: The person who leads prayers in a mosque.
Imam: A title of various Muslim leaders, especially of one succeeding Muhammad as leader of Shiite Islam:

Since when has Imam become a title anyone can give himself?You’re a terrorist and indeed a member of boko haram. Look for another lie to tell. Blues has unmasked you again.

Have_ago

@ Babacow, This is blasphemy to the servant and messenger of Allah and I here by condemn you to be stone to death for saying that Imam is a title. The first time of hearing this.

fola

Imam is used for someone that lead the muslim prayer therefore not applicable to your distant relative, shekau…stop misleading the forum idiat…

Blackburn J.

Blues! You are too much! See how Babakeu will now disappear from radar because he has mistakenly exposed himself big time. Na you fit this guy and I must say if you are not in the business of capturing terrorists or
their sympathisers, then you should start giving it some thoughts. I have always known there is something about Babakeu and now with that single word used by him, I am now convinced.

ben benny

First time you talked without being biased,or involving religion/ethnicity.

Prince T

good point

Blackburn J.

Babakeu how can somebody who gloats openly over the killing and raping of the innocent be called an Imam? And did you say Islam is a religion of peace? What does Imam stand for?

Capitol

You won’t find him around again. Whenever he is unmasked, he takes off.

George

Did Asari Dokubo tell you he was fighting a holy war? Did you see his militant groups recite the bible before or during their terror campaigns? In spite of that, he was still able to identify himself as Mujahadeen Asari Dokubo, because that is the only religion that recognises violence. How many of the leaders in rival groups identified themselves as Venerable Tompolo, or evengelist something?

Jakadiya

Yet some deaf and dumb followers rely on him as a Savior.

mota gur

Very intelligent reply, however Asari is a freedom fighter.

Yawe1

My brother that is not intelligent reply. Thugs, touts and militant are irresponsible, tell me how many surviving Countries in the World you see their Govt mingle with militants and thugs. asari as a Muslim would have been worst than boko haram but for the fact that he asari able to steal oil and Govt allow him to deviate oil for his own use make him to be a local and just a mouth fighter.

EUO, only an allied forces like the OPC, Bakassi, ND, Nigerian Army with some help from the West or US can win the war against this BH devils. OPC, Bakass and ND combined will be swept away in two days by those bastards because they are terrorists (being supported and financed by Al Qaeda and Al Shabab) and illiterates who has been brainwashed with some Jihad quotes that if they die fighting a Jihad war they are automatically going to heaven and so many other lies. We the Westerners, SE and SS are so educated to the extent that we can’t even let a mosquito take a drop of our blood not to talk of these blood mongers take our head. BTW, terrorism doesn’t end cos no matter how the US and the West killed them they still spring up all the time.

A man that leaves in the swampy jungles perpetrating evils should be a better man helping the army with his wealth of experiences.

You don’t even want them to control their RESOURCES. AND YET YOU DON’T WANT THEIR SON, HABA!

Guguru

Take a look at Asari—-he is chubby and round like a well baked Agege bread. Is he not?

igboham

If I were to pick a side on deliverance of promises. I probably will go with the Hausa/Fulani because they keep their word unlike our people. I hope it can be different this time around.

That is your own myopia. Are you talking about the promise of IBB, Abacha, Buhari, Muritala? You are a fool forever

ndubuisi

he is truly a fool forever. he knows nothing about Nigeria history.

I refuse to insult you because you are part of my people and I have dignity too thanks.

ijawboy

let them come to the Niger delta and bomb, we will make sure Rwanda genocide replicate itself here, we will kill 1million abokis over night and make Dangote the poorest man. Sambisa is not our concern, those kids belong to the northerners that re sponsoring boko haram.

NaijaMindOfChange

There is no war but honestly GEJ and PDP must be voted out.

Osibisa

Kid yourself. Your people do not want to live in peace with others; you don’t want to leave them; and you don’t want them to leave you.

You don’t even want them to control their RESOURCES. AND YET YOU DON’T WANT THEIR SON, HABA!

Brooklyn101

Go and sleep with your noise. Boko Haram is deadlier than the militants ,they are suicide bombers and has the backing of AL-quaeda and al shabab ,militants only have the backing of some politicians so don’t bring conflict to naija with your comment because you guys are all lazy set of pple who commits atrocities to get recognition and money from the government but these bokos don’t need money from naija government and if it was about money, they would have accepted it and had stopped their atrocities on innocent people. The government can handle this I believe and peace will be restored to Nigeria and the North specifically with God’s help

Max

Listen to this criminal saying that 2015 is their survival. How do you think and feel that your weak, clueless Jonathan can win the election. Do you think rigging can lead him into the office no way. Let me tell you Asari.. Shekau and his boys will finish you people in less than two hours. Do not dare that deadly man that feel happy in slaughtering human being throat. Live to them have no meaning at all. Please keep on bragging on the pages of newspapers. Mind you 2015 as you said is do-or-die affairs and we are ready to defend and die for our vote ” one man one vote” No rigging to bring in this weak and corrupt regime back. We are tired and feed up of this your region government

Otofure

I have said it before that boko haram is a nothern strategy to make GEJ administration a nightmare so that they can grab power. I can feel and hear it. very soon and I mean very soon the notherners will come out in their true color for a broad day fight.

Do you think forcing Jonathan out will give you the peace and resources to fund Nigeria? Do you think forcing Jonathan out will bring back all the billions your leaders from the North have stolen since 1960? Try and see. Come back later with one Nigerie and hand shake across the Niger

NaijaMindOfChange

Yeah, you are so right in your comment. Nigerians are ready to defend and die for their vote, we are tired of weak, deceiving person and clueless person as president. Enough is enough.

Osibisa

Stop kidding yourself. Your people do not want to live in peace with others; you don’t want to leave them; and you don’t want them to leave you.

DO YOU THINK THAT POSITION BELONG TO NIGER DELTA ONLY OR FOR THE WHOLE NIGERIA??????PLEASE ANSWER THAT QUESTION TO ALL NIGERIA OK

If your family is killed by the Northern Boko Haram because Jonathan is the president, it is sad, but Jonathan will not resign because of that. Tell the North the strategy has failed. You are a fool to say all you have said to Asari. Do you think that position belong to the Hausa/Fulani of the North only or to the whole Nigeria. I now know why you bomb and kill. You do it so Jonathan will resign. You are a fool for ever. Jonathan will not resign. Do your worst

NaijaMindOfChange

Asari is just a joke, he can only vote for GEJ but he can not win the majority. We don’t want GEJ again, we need change. PDP are failures.

Doublee Dee

Nigeria is indeed doomed. Whilst the politicians are forcefully looting our treasuries using pens and fake ballot results, the terrorists are also escalating their quest for wealth using guns and bombs and preaching violence. When are we going to wake up from our slumber?

NaijaMindOfChange

Nigerians have woken up, we are heading towards a greater change come 2015, the change far expected is close now, we must vote PDP out come 2015, enough is enough.

Dele Odugbemi

Asari Dokubo has many properties and other investments scattered in and around Cotonou city, Benin republic but refused to invest his accrued huge monney made from oil thefts in Nigeria in his region for direct benefits of teeming poor people of his region he claimed is fighting for, he will make those fairly minded people cast their votes for opponent of Mr. President in next year presidential election because his threat and boast sound very foolish and irritating to hear.

NWA_Africa

Asari is about to start fighting Jonathan`s wife because of Rivers State. So not mind him as he is never in support of Jonathan.

Brooklyn101

I am against the Bokos and their evil but Asari, you can’t stand these Bokos them o because you are billionaire and would never want to die and leave your billions and the university which termed one of the best in Togo you own. Bokos are suicide bombers and they are not fighting for money as we all can see but rather power and recognition but you did your militancy for money but these bokos are not after the cash because if they were after cash, they would have long been paid to stop their evil acts. Pls Asari don’t bring conflict with your sick talks, each time you all spit guts from your mouths, the bokos strike and kill innocent people and you are there waiting for Mr. President to throw some dollars to you for your brags on dailies. Get your boys and hit the forest to rescue our sisters and also kill the bokos then I would recognise you,talk is cheap Asari.

NaijaMindOfChange

Asari is just a simple vanderliser of pipelines. Nothing more.

Okey .u.

Empty boast.

Mandela

That man Asari Dokubo is mad

Abiodun Olayinka

Only in Nigeria. A thug threatening another thug and that is news. God bless Nigeria

NaijaMindOfChange

You can imagine the kind of democracy that we are practicing in this country, a militant threatening the peace of this country. This is bad.

ijawboy

I see, so many of you here are boko haram sympathizers, thats why the figth against terrorism will not end. and most of you here are jobless youths without future. how can you choose to discredit Asari instead of condemning boko haram SHEKAU? an Irony.

DecodeDaRiddle

Why won’t the north ask for scrapping of the NDDC if all it ones is organize strategic meetings with ex militants while the zone is under developed.
Our dear president called for wealth distribution, guess that is what NDDC was implementing with the ex militants.
Shekau and Asari were both trained and now he will deploy his expertise in defense of his interest …how is that different from what BH is doing? No one seeks the interest of the nation again.
Asari only knows how to beat the drum of war when his interest is threatened. He has taken all his major assets out of the country with no benefit to the community that he recruits fighters from… talk about leadership.
To the bigger issue, comments that indicate that the north deserves what happened to the girls is rather unfortunate. When Christians and other tribes were targets we asked them to leave the zone, now we are yet to realize that that didn’t deter them but the soul of the nation as always being their actual target and the earlier killings were a distraction.
Our leaders sowed the seed of ethnicity and religion and now the whirlwind is here.
Let us prove to our leaders that we are no fertile soil for such seeds again and if they can’t defend what we voted them to do, at the best after they finish, they should exit. Every zone possess such leaders and we should reject them as they collectively are not moving us forward.

NaijaMindOfChange

Yes, the NDDC should be scrapped, they are not working, they are waste of state resources. GEJ should cancel the NDDC because it is a fraud in Nigeria.

OKWY

What about the quota system and federal character that has being favouring the north even b4 you were born to date. Have you ever seen any northern Graduate riding Okada. Because any northerner that agrees to go to university has automatic job. OBJ came and changed the military that made the Southerners realise that we top military officers that the northerners were sitting on their promotion. To rewrite the evil the past northern leaders established on this country means stepping on their toes and that’s the price GEJ is paying. Mind you that insurgency increased after the suspension of Sanusi. Imagine what will happen if Buhari. or Atiku is arrested. My brother it is not easy to rule this country with past mess that eventually became our ways of life

NaijaMindOfChange

To be frank, why is militant still in Nigeria, for how long will the FG continue to feed militant why it’s citizen is living in abject poverty, Asari is nothing but an empty noise maker, GEJ is initiating the division of this country.

EUBSS

High grade stupidity will not allow you ask why boko haram has continued killing Nigerians.

It’s obvious our once-flourishing Nigeria is on the road to total collapse due to poor leadership. Danger signs are everywhere: in the North: Boko Haram; in the South-South: Militancy; in the South East: Kidnapping; in the South West: it’s Armed Robbery; in Jos, Benue and others: it’s murder by Fulani herdsmen. I truly weep for Nigeria. I just can’t see any light at the end of the tunnel. The darkness isi getting even darker. Warlords are emerging from all frontiers every new day. We all sit and wonder what next is going to happen; where the next bomb is going to explode and seriously pray it doesn’t affect us or any of our loved ones. Lord God please save us from this new evil, send us a Messiah, uproot the evil ones and let this country know peace.

Concerned Citizen

Asari should volunteer to go to Sambisa forest now. He should not wait till when Jonathan is touched or there is a strike in Niger Delta. It might be too late then, damages might have been done which may be irreversible. Besides, he should have a large heart and fight for the nation rather than Niger Delta course alone.

Yoruba adage says; Omo Ina ni a ran s’ina, Ole ni mo ese ole to Lori apata.( only thief knows how to trace the steps of like mind thieves on the rock). Let them face one another it is possible they received training from the same source. Lol!

We shall appreciate it if OPC, BAKASI BOYS, can join the struggle and not the armless civilian JTF.

asari u re a father in d niger delta, pls do everything u can to install gej in 2015 and when u become old we will make u a grand father,may God keep u alive

Enough of this mouth battle Alhaji Dokubo, go to Sabisa forest and free the innocent girls, after all the BH people are your brothers. Stop all sakara in the press. Go to Sabisa forest and meet them in Borono

Good talk.

your right . Asari will go to sambisa to sleep with your mother okay.

Nigeria as a country is unfortunate to have these terrorists and bad leaders.

Of course no monopoly of violence. But only God can know its negative impact . It is only when there is Nigeria u can have a Presiden as a “shield” for whatever criminality u may want to commit. There is definetly a day of reconning.

Sir Mark ibhafidon

One thing is clear to every reasonable nigerian, Asari Dokumu is a terrorist himself and an arrogant person. He is out to destroy our nation just like his brother Jona. The interest of our nation is not in their heart.
One thing is most clear, our Lord Jesus Christ said that those who kill with sword shall also die by the sword.

I may not agree or support the course of this man Dokubo, but I respect the fact that he makes himself visible, unlike the cowards of book haram, who are not brave enough to face up but are Chickenly attacking armless citizens and women.

Sunday Njokede

Asari is only bluffing, he would not want to die and leaving his sweet
money and material things he has acquired plenty. Boko Haram operatives
have nothing to lose Asari and co, have alot to lose.To compare Niger Delta militant and Boko Haram is like comparing an elephant and the smalless ant ever.

EUBSS

Do not forget that you are a moronic bbastarrd 4 life.

mota gur

Between Asari the man and Shekeu the ghost, who is braver ? Asari is standing tall and talking while Shekeu is hiding in the forest. who then is the real man ? shekeu is now sleeping in the midst of 12 year old girls while Asari is free as air strategizing. While shekeu is killing the weak Asari is not killing but preaching repentance to the Northern leaders. So who is the real man here ?

Let Buhari, Ango Nyako go to that Sambisa forest to rescue the abducted girls. this is my resolution and this is my third time saying this. Nigerian security agents will no longer continue to search for those girls. One can not sheet and let another person clean his butt-ox. The chapter of the abducted girls should be closed and life continues. The earlier the President understands this the better for him and this will reduce the menace of the Boko Haram because they will no longer abduct any body. This is a trick politically inclined. Ignore the Girls you will see them returning one by one. since the girls were not sexually assaulted, why did they be abducted?. They know what they are doing. May be its obvious that there will be an end to this entity call Nigeria in a short distant time, but nobody is afraid, let that end come today. nonsense

Please, point of correction, my brother man: you are a man, but shekau is not. You we know, we see, we feel; shekau is a ghost, a coward.

In a sane society, someone like Asari would be labelled a terrorist. I still remember the terror unleashed by him and his group. Nigeria lacks fairness and justice.

Asari is a terrorist that Nigeria government approved. it is evil to have militant.

Exactly my point.

what you don’t know is that free for all war is on the way. i believe you don’t know your tribe better find out and begin to secede. 2015 is a year that no one would like to remember.

Are you a Christian by any chance, because the story of Christianity seems just as ridiculous as Islam’s….. I mean a burning bush with no fire? Conception by the ‘holy spirit’? Walking on water? Some middle easter hippie (yes Jesus) walking around with 12 men talking about turning water to wine and how he speaks directly to God?….. Just something to think about….

Read my post well. All middle east religions are bullsh*t.
All are irrational and supremacist.
All have no use for the Bllackman
All are hypocritical
All have warped ideas of the supernatural
And all have no place in modernity
All are products of deluded Jews and Insane Arabs

This guy is making sense. Some people just go abt blaming GEJ. If anyth goes on amiss with a muslim northerner now GEJ is the cause. They will collaborate with their govs and leaders and hide the so-called kidnapped girls and stir up the public with money to protest “GEJ bring back our girls”. Killing and maiming pple. Is this all that u pple have in the north to chase after power?

Nze

Please Asari Dokubo, you have to distinguish between agitation for recources and terrorism. They are not connected. The federal government has all at its disposal to do this. Terrorism should not be tribalised.

Alexandra the great surrounded a city and asked the king to negotiate the terms for peace. His generals told him no we got valiant men to fight we will win. Alex asked the king to come out and see his soldiers on the ciff. He gave orders to 10men that they jump to their death and they did not hesitate another 10 followed at his orders and they did. The king went back and negotiated the terms for peace. He asked his generals can you die for me and they said no. Askari can your men die for you. Sekaru will answer yes and thats the difference. Askari troops live in mansions sekarus troops live in forest and caves. The difference is 7Up.

BUT ASARI THOSE HURTING GOODLUCK JONATHAN AND HIS SECOND TERM AMBITION ARE A VERY FEW IJAW PERSONS AND SHAMELESS PRAISE SINGERS LIKE YOU, WHO ONLY TELL JONATHAN ONLY WANT HE WANTS TO HEAR. TELL ME DO YOU HSAVE THE VOTES? DO YOU THINK THAT YOU CAN WISH GOODLUCK JONATHAN SECOND TERM AND FORCE IN THROUGH THE TROTHS OF NIGERIANS. IT IS GOODLUCK JONATHAN THAT GAVE ALL THE VERY SENSITIVE SECURITY APPOINTMENTS TO THE CORE NORTHERN PEOPLE. IT IS JONATHAN WHO HAS NO GUTS TO FIRE THEM BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT PERFORMING. IT IS GOODLUCK JONATHAN THAT IS FALLING FOR THE CHEAP BLACKMAIL OF RE ELECTION AND THE SUPPORT OF THE CORE NORTH. ASARI BE REAL FOR ONCE AND FOR ONCE CALL IT THE WAY YOU SEE IT. TELL NIGERIANS WHY GOODLUCK JONATHAN HAS TO PERSONALLY INTERVENE WHEN YOU WERE ARRESTED IN THE REPUBLIC OF BENIN ANS HE HAS NO GUTS TO NAME, SHAME AND PROSECUTE THE MEMBERS AND LEADERS OF BOKO HARAM, KNOWN TO HIM, HIS GOVERNMENT AND THE INTELLIGENCE AGENCIES. SOME OF THESE BOKO HARAM PERSONS ARE VERY CLOSE TO HIM AND HIS GOVERNMENT. THESE SAME HORRIBLE BOKO HARAM ARE KILLING AND MAIMING INOCENT NIGERIA ON A DAILY BASIS AND YET GOODLUCK JONATHAN CAN NOT OBLITERATE AND ELIMINATE THEM WITH MILITARY INCISION, BUT GOODLUCK JONATHAN CAN INTERVENE WHEN YOU DOKOBO WAS ARRESTED IN BENIN. WE HAVE BEEN FOLLOWING OKAH’S TRIAL IN SOUTH AFRICA VERY KEENLY AND SOME OF THE REVELATIONS. ASARI PLEASE GIVE US A BRAKE GOODLUCK JONATHAN IS THE CHIEF SECURITY OFFICER OF NIGERIA AND THE COMMANDER IN CHIEF OF THE NIGERIA ARMED FORCES AND THE BUCK STOPS WITH GOODLUCK JONATHAN AS THE PRESIDENT OF NIGERIA. GOODLUCK JONATHAN IS A VERY MISSED OPPORTUNITY AS WE FROM THE NIGER DELTA AND THE MINORITIES WILL NEVER EVER HAVE THIS OPPORTUNITY AGAIN. YOU TALK OF 2019 AS IF THAT IS FOREVER. AFTER 2019 THAT IS IF WE ARE STILL ALIVE THEN AND THINGS CONTINUE THE WAY THEY ARE GOING, GOODLUCK JONATHAN AND THOSE LIKE YOU WILL BECOME EX THIS AND EX THAT, YOU WILL BE LEAKING YOUR WOUNDS WHEN YOU JOIN THE SCRAP HEAP OF FAILED AND WASTED SO CALLED LEADERS. ASARI SO CALLED LEADERSHIP SORRY DEALERSHIP IS A FLASH AND YOU CAN ENJOY YOUR 15 MINS OF GLORY WHILE IT LAST. I WILL END BY TELLING YOU THAT I REGRETTED OFFERING MY GREAT SUPPORT TO GOODLUCK JONATHAN INTHE LAST ELECTION AND DURING THE PERIOD YAR’ADUA WAS VERY SICK AND THE THEN CABAL OF YAR’ADUA DID EVERY THING TO FREEZE JONATHAN OUT. I AM SURE THAT THE MAJORITY OF NIGERIANS WHO DID THE SAME THING GIVING THEIR SUPPORT TO JONATHAN THEN ARE ALSO REGRETTING THEIR ACTIONS. IF GOODLUCK JONATHAN THINKS THAT BY ALLOWING BOKO HARAM AND THEIR LEADERS WHO HE KNOWS, TO GET AWAY WITH MURDER, WILL GIVE HIM THE SUPPORT OF THE CORE NORTH, THEN HE SHOULD THINK AGAIN AND AGAIN. JONATHAN CAN GIVE THEM THE PRESIDENCY TO RUN ON A DAILY BASIS, I WILL ASSURE YOU THAT THE CORE NORTH WILL NOT SUPPORT HIM WHEN THE CHIPS ARE DOWN. WE ARE ALL WATCHING TO SEE HOW THIS DRAMA UNFOLDS.

Ladi Babson

Nigeria is tethered on the edge, no doubt, with the Boko Haram terrorists threatening the nation, and now MEND preparing to meet them on the war front. Sooner than later, we will hear from the OPC in the South West, and MOSSAB from the South East, all saying the same thing that Nigeria should go their way or the highway. Let all who are sane in Nigeria put their heads together and save the country from the chaos that would soon ensue, if nothing is done. Fortunately, Nigerians have the opportunity at the Confab now on in Abuja to correct all the ills plaguing the nation, and evolve a new nation where no one will be oppressed, and no one will claim that he is ‘born to rule’ while others are there only to be enslaved, as in the days of IBB and other Military Governments of those days.

Opara Kelechi

People just make some stupid comments as if sambisa forest is another bemuda triangle, d only reason d military has not matched into that forest if any is cos of those girls. Shekau is a coward, bloody coward cos its only fools, cowards etc dat goes aboutkidnapping girls, hiding perpetrating evil! Shekau u re a big fool, a coward, an imbecile etc. If u re a man show urself, clown!!!

ctopher4xt

I think this headline fit this, ‘The beginning of the end’. Asari would not need to go to forest, its not their domain, but i am sure, at any strike against their land, there would be a retaliation. All region might be set for war by now. But i don’t see boko haram do that because it would backfire.

Legendary

As far as am concern Asari should keep his stinking mouth shut. he is selfish, corrupt, blotted with ill gotten wealth. What has he done for the people he claimed he was fighting for? what did he do with all the money he got in the name of Niger delta crusade? Asari should just shut up and go back to the gutters where he belongs. Coward.Asari should go to the forest if really he is a freedom fighter. there should be no discrimination. the girls are Nigerians, Asari is a freedom fighter.

ctopher4xt

The issue with Nigerians is that we never see ourselves as one, we only live in deceit of the millennium. Nigerians had lost the trust in their leaders and the systems. Nigerians are like living as slave in their own land.

Legendary

Delay is dangerous. the chances of rescuing this girls intact is fast eroding with each passing day. something has to be done urgently to the entity called Nigeria before we all disappear

Oramiyan

Alhaji Asari your Islamic daughters have been kidnapped and taken to Sambisa forest go after them instead of bragging around.

This drum of war Nigerian youths are biting I pray it will not happen because I love every Nigerian who abide by the law. I am pleading to all Nigerians to control their tongue and be patience and show a little more love to one another otherwise the case of Hiroshima during the world war 11 will be a tip of an iceberg in Nigeria case. Please fellow Nigerians, do not allow your enemies to celebrate over your failures and costly mistakes. The earlier we start working out the modalities to coexist the better for all. People talking about resource control and claiming no body own a particular section of a country where there are natural resources are not honest and should tell themselves the truth or better still go to Saudi Arabia and let them know that their oil belong to the whole world. Almighty God help my great nation Nigeria. Amen.

The useless president just set up a fact finding committee to look into this. Why do we have such a joke of a president.
DECLARE WAR ON BOKO HARAM AND ALL ITS SUPPORTERS MR. PREDIDENT I AM BEGGING YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

SOUND AND RUMOURS OF WAR! SHAKAU AND ASARI MUST KNOW THAT NIGERIA IS BIGGER THAN THEM. JONATHAN IS A UNIFYING FACTOR IN NIGERIA AS AN ENTITY AND THE REASON WHY NIGERIA SHOULD BE GOWON BEYOND 2015.

Asari Dokubo wants to have battlefield with boko haram, in whose interest, to defend GEJ or Niger delta better still of what good is your battlefield will be for govt of GEJ ? more chaos and the nation will become anarchical.

Enneh

Real” Hitlers” go to war front to face their enemies on the battle field well exposed to show that they are real Men. But for bokos and their sponsors, i don’t know the adjective to qualify them. They attack the weak and defenseless people in the society. This is absolute cowardice.

Isah Rafee Ibrahim

This page affords one the conclusion that “one nigeria” is elitist. I also used to think that only those of us in the north were illiterates, but going through some of these opinions one cannot but understand that illiteracy is no respecter of regions. “Every Muslim into the north is a bh, but a niger delta Muslim isn’t an extremist”.
My only worry is that prophets of God are being dragged into this hatred. Can’t we kill ourselves without involving even zik, awo & sardauna? Love for the north isn’t an obligation, but I don’t know how Islam or Christianity is the issue.
May I advise my fellow muslims to stop discussing religion on this page, in order that we don’t become accessories to the blasphemy.

Mayra

THIS is the kind of talk a president should make. Maybe you all think Asari is a terrorist but let me tell you, with proper grammar-without proper grammar, he has made his point clear abi. You don’t allow BH terrorist to taunt and boast, you push back and check em. I don’t give a fig for tribal difference at this point. If OPC and MEND can unite, MOSSAB, more power to the people, because we need it. Some men are born fighters and some are born leaders, within the law or not, and I would rather have a hundred Asaris than 500 corrupt politician at the helm of a ship going nowhere.

In case we forgot, this is the root cause of the escalation of boko haram!!!

As Nigerians are killed by politically sponsored terrorists, this is another unfortunate statement by a so-called elder statesman:

“Anything short of a Northern President is tantamount to stealing our Presidency. Jonathan has to go and he will go. Even if he uses the incumbency power to get his nomination on the platform of the PDP, he would be frustrated out.

The North is determined, if that happens, to make the country ungovernable for President Jonathan or any other Southerner who finds his way to the seat of power on the platform of the PDP against the principle of the party’s zoning policy”

– Alhaji Lawan Kaita, former Governor of the old Kaduna State, on October 5, 2010.

Trailblazer

Fatso is at it again. Bros has already relocated to another country with his blood money while leaving NigerDeltans tp pick up the pieces. This interview in not about boko haram but about the contact that he wants. Some of these Ijaws are jokers. All talk and no action. The entire niger delta is still improvised while these glorified hooligans and some in government play slumlords.

Prince Obisanya Adeoye Femi

let all stop saying that nothing concern Ansari on the issue of bh in north coz north is also our own territory and not a neighboring country, the children held captive are our own children and not a foreigner. therefore every insurgent in that region concern each and every one of us.

Prince Obisanya Adeoye Femi

if you open your own mouth an talk rubbish because your children are not among the captive, God will not be on your side and may he refuse to protect you when it come to your turn.

Prince Obisanya Adeoye Femi

now it time to Re-open the law of mosses.
tooth for tooth and tongue for tongue.

They are the same, killing innocent and poor people for money. May God remember his people.

NIGERIA WILL BE GREAT AGAIN

One does not step into the same river twice but PDP still thinks Nigeria is still at the place where they were chased out of power. they will eventually be straightened out

Good words of wisdom. They seem not to realize that the days when people melt when they hear PDP were over.

Not in Nigeria! A house divided against itself will stand as two houses or as main house and boys quarter!! No cause for alarm, just democrazy in action!!!

Sheriff is a Boko Haram financier.

And Wike + Fayose went to bring a Boko Haram financier to head PDP. That makes them Boko Haram founders

Caution and sanity speak through the evil forest till all is resisted. If the Judgement favors Sheriff, let Makarfi and others accept, but wisely plot something. I do not need to say further than that.

Nigeria is so divided in all fronts. We hardly can agree to a common vision and leadership without resentment. Sherrif and Makarfi have placed their selfish interest beyond the party. The duos are more interested in becoming the chairmen of the party than seeing its success. Sherrif, Makarfi and others killed PDP long time ago. RIP PDP.
